†Denotes an error in the print version of HTML: The Complete Reference that has been corrected for this online version.   Note: Many online color references claim that further color variations can be introduced by adding the numbers 1 through 4 to color names. If this were correct, cadetblue1, cadetblue2, cadetblue3 and cadetblue4 would display as different shades of the same color, 1 being the lightest and 4 the darkest. Some of these references also claim that gray supports up to 100 color variations (gray10, gray50, gray90, etc.). Testing reveals that this does not work under Netcape, Internet Explorer or WebTV.
